The Waggingtons Effect
Mushu
Wow! This little guy Mushu would have had to be rehomed if it hadn’t been for Tracie’s advice and training with our boy Mushu. As a rescue, he had many issues and we were struggling to deal with him until we were recommended to Tracie and Claire at Waggingtons. He now goes twice a week for daycare apart from one on one consultations and is like a different dog. Thank you

Koji
I heard about Tracie and Waggingtons while chatting to a friend. I was struggling with my new pup Moji. We had a few zoom consultations and she guided me in the right way. Moji was chasing my old cat which was so traumatic for me and my cat! It took a while and now they are friends 🌞

Loki
Loki is a nervous rescue and reactive to other dogs out of fear. Tracie gave us plenty of practical tips and advice, all written up for us afterwards! Just one walk in the park with her made a huge difference in Loki’s reaction to dogs. We are very grateful.

Kaya
My little Romanian rescue was so nervous on walks, but Tracie's advice and guidance in just one session has made a huge difference. Kaya now wants to explore more every day and we are both so much more confident. Thank you Tracie!

Behavioural Consultations
We offer one-to-one consultation sessions covering all aspects of your dog’s behaviour. We will help you understand why your puppy or adult dog may be jumping, biting, toileting indoors, pulling on a lead, barking excessively, lunging at other dogs or people, showing aggression or other unwanted behaviours that are impacting your life and your relationship with your dog.
Your first session will be at your home and will take up to two hours. Here, all challenges you are experiencing will be discussed, and you will be given tools so that moving forward you will have a more positive, more pleasureable and stable relationship with your dog.
Overnight Boarding
Waggingtons offers a unique home-away-from-home experience, providing a safe and comfortable environment for your dog. Our facility is a secure setting where your beloved pet can enjoy a fun-filled holiday, socialising with other thoroughly vetted and approved dogs.
With over 18 years of experience caring for London's dogs, Waggingtons is fully licensed and insured. We operate from our home and are therefore always available to provide attention needed. There are only a limited number of licensed spots available, so to avoid disappointment, please see integration protocol.

Pack Walks
Our unique pack walk service invites you and your dog to join one of our daily walks, in our local green belt next to the Waggingtons premises. These walks are offered every weekday, with both morning and afternoon sessions. During these walks, your dog will enjoy engaging activities such as ball games and recall practice, all while making friends with our delightful Waggers!
Joining a Waggingtons pack walk will give you, the owner, an amazing insight into how we walk our dogs daily. It is a completely guided experience, where we will integrate your dog as part of our pack, whilst you take a back seat. You can also join a pack walk as part of your dogs integration into our Waggingtons family. Waggingtons is the only company that offer this unique experience, and our clients absolutely love it!
